suns along the Mohawk

Over the past two years, I’ve posted well over 100 photos of the Stockade-athon race as it passes through the Stockade neighborhood. [See, here and here for 2010, and there for 2009. And here for 2011]  As my version of training and race preparation — in addition to planning on that proverbial pre-race pasta meal tomorrow — I’ve selected and posted here a dozen of my favorite Stockade-athon images, starting with one that is a nice fit with Veterans Day.

If the creek/river don’t rise, I’ll be out taking more pictures Sunday, November 13, for Stockade-athon 2011. I hope to see you there and then back here for a photo array featuring the 2011 Gazette Stockade-athon.
